TMZ report:
legal war with Lil Wayne is back to square one, because Weezy continues to drop major disrespect on his ex-mentor’s name.
Sources close to the situation tell us … lawyers for the 2 camps were close to reaching a deal — one meeting away, in fact — when Wayne publicly dissed Birdman by changing the lyrics in “I’m Me” from a Cash Money shout-out to a Jay Z shout-out.
We’re told Birdman has his own beef with Jay, which made Wayne’s diss sting even more. Lil Wayne’s “Suck my d***!” at that same show didn’t help either — so he pulled the plug on negotiations.
The bottom line, we’re told, is if they’re ever gonna settle the $51 million lawsuit … both sides need to stop jawing in public.
